The earlier program marked progression in skills by ranks, begin ning with . Tenderfoot. As a girl ac quired more skills. she met the requirements for Second Class and then, eventually, for First Class. The ranks required such skills as emer gency first aid procedures, showing points of the compass without a com pass, walking two miles in one hour, and swimming 50 yards while fully clothed. Ranks are gone now, and other changes reflect the contemporary scene. For example, many maps used by Girl Scouts today show city blocks rather than miles; one-pot meals may incorporate dehydrated food and use less protein from animal sources. While these and other activities changed with the times. others re mained and will always be relevant.
